Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Given the drawbacks of a femoral intertrochanteric fracture classification based on 2-dimensional radiographic imaging, an artificial intelligence-based classification system- the Tang classification system-which uses 3-dimensional image analysis, has previously been developed. This study explored the reliability of the Tang classification by comparing the consistency of this classification with the conventional 2-dimensional femoral intertrochanteric fracture classification systems.
